How Much Should You Pay For Branding?

How Much Should You Pay For Branding?

In this episode, we’re talking branding budgets, and how you can work out yours. Many people aren’t sure what they ‘should’ spend on their branding. And, it makes sense, because branding is not something you invest in everyday. The truth is, the value you place on your branding may be wildly different to the next business. And as you may have already figured out, every branding studio will charge different rates.
